《For A Dancer》歌词

[00:00:00] For A Dancer - Jackson Browne

[00:00:27] Keep a fire burning in your eye

[00:00:32] Pay attention to the open sky

[00:00:36] You never know what will be coming down

[00:00:45] I don't remember losing track of you

[00:00:49] You were always dancing in and out of view

[00:00:53] I must've always thought you'd be around

[00:01:02] Always keeping things real by playing the clown

[00:01:08] Now you're nowhere to be found

[00:01:20] I don't know what happens when people die

[00:01:24] Can't seem to grasp it as hard as I try

[00:01:27] It's like a song playing right in my ear

[00:01:32] That I can't sing

[00:01:34] I can't help listening

[00:01:37] I can't help feeling stupid standing 'round

[00:01:41] Crying as they ease you down

[00:01:45] Cause I know that you'd rather we were dancing

[00:01:52] Dancing our sorrow away

[00:01:57] Right on dancing

[00:02:00] There's nothing you can do about it anyway

[00:02:04] Just do the steps that you've been shown

[00:02:09] By everyone you've ever known

[00:02:16] Until the dance becomes your very own

[00:02:20] No matter how close to yours another's steps have grown

[00:02:28] In the end there is one dance you'll do alone

[00:03:00] Keep a fire for the human race

[00:03:04] And let your prayers go drifting into space

[00:03:09] You never know will be coming down

[00:03:17] Perhaps a better world is drawing near

[00:03:22] And just as easily it could all disappear

[00:03:26] Along with whatever meaning you might have found

[00:03:35] Don't let the uncertainty turn you around

[00:03:40] Go on and make a joyful sound

[00:03:44] Into a dancer you have grown

[00:03:49] From a seed somebody else has thrown

[00:03:55] Go on ahead and throw some seeds of your own

[00:04:00] And somewhere between the time you arrive and the time you go

[00:04:07] May lie a reason you were alive but you'll never know
